LGBT News Green Bay Packer QB Aaron Rogers potentially gay??

my favorite QB ever...I hate the rumors, but would be amazing if true

Realllllllly???

Unfortunately a large segment of the NFL fanbase would constantly berate him for that. Still... well I guess it would only be awesome if he came out on his terms (assuming he's in at all).

 

I was suspicious about him when he stated in an interview what he was searching for in a center's butt. You see, quarterbacks put their hands under the center's butt/crotch to take the snap (get the football) when not in shotgun (when they line up a few yards away from center).

I just felt that he was too descriptive LOL, though if not, he was just messing around with the reporters.


Aaron Rodgers talks about what he’s looking for in a center’s buttocks

 

If he's gay he should come out on his own terms . and what's up with these witch hunts if someone doesn't want to tell you their gay, bisexual or lesbian it's their business they don't owe you to come out . I don't even think their doing this to help the kids and adults in the closets anymore

 

Well, a year ago, now retired Ravens CB Brandon Ayanbadejo (Straight Ally) said that he got into contact with four gay NFL players and that they had planned to come out all as one this last summer, but the plan fell awry. If there are four gay players, there's at least the slim chance one of them is a primetime name and not just a benchwarmer. I hate speculating, though... let them come out in their own time.

 

The fact that he actually brought up the rumors without being prompted by the reporter and then publicly denied said rumors is interesting. Had he stayed mum about it, it would never have reached this level of public awareness and would have zero credibility. If his goal was to stay in the closet and shoot down gossip, he's probably achieved the opposite. I'm not gonna lie--it would be so amazing if he were gay, but I understand he'd be in a very difficult position if that were the case.

 

Yeah him saying that doesn't really kill the rumors, it sort of just gives them more strength. Either way, I agree with everyone saying he should come out on his own terms and shouldn't feel pressured into it if he is indeed gay.

Though, I know this might be selfish, I do hope a NFL player does come out sooner than later.

 

Aaron Rodgers kinda look like my 7th/8th grade social studies' teacher.

 

LOL! I just read that. He's looking for a good "butt height". :roflmao:

 

It would be cool if he is gay and comes out and continues to play as long as he wants, hopefully with the Packers and wins another Super Bowl. Maybe it would open the minds of some people in Wisconsin and elsewhere. No matter what he should have privacy and live his private life on his own terms and of course beat San Fran this weekend!

 

As a huge GB packers fan, I don't know what I believe about Rodgers, but part of be hopes he is, though I appreciate the difficult position he would be in. It's just that everybody here loves Aaron Rodgers, his ability on the field as well as who he is as a person. Wisconsin is an island, surrounded by equal rights states. If somebody like Aaron Rodgers came out, maybe it would open some eyes.

 

He explicitly denied the rumors that he's gay, and pointed out that he has a girlfriend. In his own words, "I really, really, really like women."

 

Mostly it's retired NFL players that come out. It would be cool if some active players were out. I wonder if it was a gay player that suggested wearing pink for breast cancer?

 

Really? Methinks he doth protest too much. Let's see how quickly he comes out publicly with a girlfriend (photos and all) to quash these rumors. Of course, it could be a fake girlfriend like Manti Te'o's. :lol:

 

If this is true, he'll be my second-favorite QB (sorry, but nobody is knocking Tom Brady off the top of this Pats fan's list)

 

In the interview, didn't he say that he wasn't gay, and that he really really likes women?

We should all know this...but being gay isn't the only orientation!

Seriously, it's just suspect. He's a pro athlete - why the heck does he need a roommate? And this guy.....I don't feel like the usual "faker" thing is going on. I really feel like this is a scorned lover and it isn't about just making shit up.

He's also trying to deny it - which translates to "I don't want to come out."

Look, I totally understand things are personal. I do - everyone needs privacy. However, I also know that when you're in the public eye, people have questions.
